Friendship Focus: Forgiveness

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

By Ella McWoof

Lately, I’ve been doing a lot of research and conducting interviews with the fairies about what happened when Nafaria and Alyssa had their huge fight. I was thinking a lot about that, and about my fight with PJ. Can you imagine what would happen if Nafaria and Alyssa had patched up their differences when the fight first happened? They might still be friends today – and maybe Nafaria would be the queen. Who knows? Neither of them was willing to listen to the other’s story – or hear how the other was feeling. They didn’t want to forgive one another for what had happened, so they just grew further and further apart.

I don’t want that to happen to PJ and I. PJ has always been a great friend, and I don’t want a little fight to break apart our friendship.

Forgiving a friend for a mistake is important; and after you’ve had a fight, asking for forgiveness is also important. Since I want PJ and me to be friends again, I need to apologize. I think I’m going to try and find her at school tomorrow and see if maybe she has some time to eat lunch with me and talk.

I have to try. I forgive her, and I hope she’ll forgive me. Our friendship is too important to throw away.

    I think this story was a good connection to me and my best friend’s fight. In Kindergrten i teased her about that she was a terrible story writer and she was very hurt. She cried all of our recess. Then I went over to be and told her that i was sorry. now I am in 5th grade and she and I are the best of friends. I hope this story changes other friend fights too!

    Interesting story, but the editor should spot that “I don’t want that to happen to PJ and I.”

    This is true. Always forgive a friend. Look at it from their point of view, then it might be easier to understand how they feel.
